The beginning of 2014 is almost here and if you want to bless your friends with good luck for the New Year, then here are some good ideas for some charms, talismans, and statuettes that might be suitable.

Aries

Aries are fire signs, so giving them a flashy red ruby or garnet helps bring them prosperity, ambition, and good luck for the New Year. A small statue of a rooster also inspires them to get up in the morning and get out into the world and achieve! Another nice gift is a gold pin of Ram’s head or red carnelian horn, which can help accentuate the natural leadership abilities of this sign.

Taurus

Taurus is an earth sign that is ruled by Venus, so giving this sign a round ball of copper or a good luck charm made out of copper sets a prosperous tone for the New Year. The Taurus also likes to be on time, so a charm in the shape of a rabbit can bring them good luck as well as fertility. A pink gem, such as a pink sapphire, can also bring this sign luck.

Gemini

A lucky peacock’s feather can bring the talented Gemini individual fame and fortune. So can a red and black fan. Gemini’s also benefit financially from gifts of jewellery that display green gems such as the dioptase, emerald, or beryl.

Cancer

This sentimental sign loves Snow Globes. Tell them to make a wish as they shake the globe, and they will experience good fortune all year. Yet another great lucky gift for a Cancer is a large natural seashell as this helps increase their natural intuition. A dolphin charm also brings this sign luck, fertility, and happiness.

Any type of charm or statuette of a cat is good luck for this leonine sign. A sleek black Egyptian cat can bring esoteric wisdom. A lapis lazuli brings good health and good fortune to this sign as well. Star and sun shapes with the Lion’s name written on it can also bring this sign good luck.

Virgo

As this sign is “the Virgin,” a small statue or charm of the Virgin Mary can bring it luck. Virgos like to save money so bring them a piggy bank, preferably silver or gold in color for them to drop their pennies in. A sculpture or wall plaque of the world helps expand the Virgo’s horizons and think of the big picture throughout the New Year.

Libra

The Libra is ruled by Venus and could use a gift made of copper. A nice salad mold made out of copper in the shape of a fish could bring this sign luck. Statues of Venus or a chunk of rose quartz can make sure this sign is blessed with love over the New Year.

Scorpio

The Scorpio individual is brought luck by stones like jet and carnelian. A coral necklace can bring them money as well as prosperity through the New Year. A statue of black cat or coiled snake brings good fortune to them as well.

Sagittarius

Sagittarians love to travel so a map of the world or small globe starts them off right in the New Years. A statuette of St. Christopher, who is the patron saint of all travelers, is also a good idea. A small bottle filled with gold flakes can help bring prosperity.

Any type of diamond brings this disciplined and hard working sign that “wants it all” great good fortune. An iron horseshoe that can be nailed above the door also makes a good gift for this sign. For a Capricorn, that has had a bit of bad luck try giving them a sprig of holly right on New Year’s Eve.

Aquarius

To make an Aquarian lucky financially bring them a jade plant. Any type of jewellery shaped like a star brings fame. A simple gemstone cut into a heart, preferably rose quartz, can bring them love.

Pisces

This is the ultimate water sign, so any type of fish shaped jewellery or gem brings them luck. A lava lamp full of green glitter can help bring them money as well. A lucky preserved starfish or drawings of starfish and other kinds of star fish also bring luck to this sign.
